I have 2 Barrass relatives that died in a Penshaw mine in Oct 1812.  Thomas and William.  Related?

Maybe possibly...are you on ancestry? Barrass is such an unusual name but it's also increasingly popular in County Durham so there is a possibility.

So, if we are talking about the right men, they were killed in a pit accident.
For some reason all the newspapers thought that Penshaw was in Cumberland.

On Wednesday week at Painshaw Colliery, Cumberland, four men having occasion to go down to examine the state of the air, they met what is called chock damp, and were struck senseless, when three of them Edward Taylor,  E. Barrass and T. Barrass, being precipitated to the bottom, were killed on the spot, the fourth was fortunately caught by the heels, and being pulled up, soon recovered.

Blimey thank you so much, I did think it may have been a pit disaster, I was also right that the MIs were mistranscribed, sorry I didnt reply with their details earlier, I was at work and shouldnt rlly be doing this at work either, but I get so bore between calls....I have to to keep me awake and my mind occupied

Caledonian Mercury, 1st April 1815

Thank you for all your help so far, the Northumberland and Durham MIs have the headstone on record and it advises their DOD is the above date, could this have been mis-transcribed and could it actually be Jul 1825 and they were 2 unrecorded deaths in the pit disaster?

Durham Lookup Requests / Lookup Request - Any mining disasters that occurred 3 Mar 1825
« on: Friday 06 September 24 07:54 BST (UK)  »
Im currently researching a family where both father and son died on the same day and the father was the foreman of a pit in the durham area.

Could it be a mining disaster that killed them both?

I tried searching the durham mining museum website but it keeps telling me it's not secure.

Can anyone access it without this warning?

Any help would be great, thanks

Thread re the family in Newcastle.

The marriage certificate would hopefully give you Mr Coggins’ father’s name and occupation, which could help your search.

I was the one who started that thread and have used the help provided but now I'm looking for Bridget's parents Paddy and Cecilia, thanks

You're shouting at other RootsChatters!

Please remove all your capital words.

Thank you

I do apologise. I was writing this at work and they ask us to leave all notes on our calls like this and didnt switch out for smaller letters. It'll not happen again
